Must win game.

Must win game.

Even if we end up beating Michigan, a loss here likely means we miss the B1G title game. Season might stay alive, but we'd need help to sneak into the playoff again. Penn State has the advantage in tie-breakers at the moment.

Penn State has looked their best in years but aren't explosive. A win will be most dependent on our offense finding a rhythm, I feel like I'm trusting our defense to do enough in this game.

PSU seems like a solid team.

Oline is ok, they run the ball fine, the pass game is not explosive but good enough. The back 7 is pretty good. They haven’t played really anyone so it’s hard to know how good they are.

The big advantage PSU has is a great pass rush. Good enough, given OSUs shaky oline play, to wreck OSUs offense and win the game by themselves.

If OSU can just contain PSUs pass rush, they’ll be on good shape.

Burke and Henderson both OUT. Damnit.

Burke and Henderson both OUT. Damnit.

I don’t understand… this is very inconsistent with what we’ve heard about treveyons injury.

So frustrating.

 

[N7RobBob]

So more pressure on Igbinson, Hancock, and Brown.

I think if we have Chip, Milan, and Dallas we should still be okay. More worried about the Oline stepping up.

 

[Ohio]

Well apparently Henderson is a gametime decision now along with Egbuka

 

[Tlyons]

We need the O-line to continue what they were doing against Purdue more than we need Henderson to play.

Hey, he's day to day, and until he can make all the throws he needs to sit out.

Saw a couple signs "Jim Harbaugh stole my other sign" out there lol

Their secondary may actually be the strength of their defense IMO, so it should be interesting to see the approach. Among others, Kalen King is a potential top 10 pick in this years draft.

Red zone offense baby!!

 

[OptimusPrime]

They're going to need to play Hayden today. He should have been starting.

 

[Stark]

Fleming needs to catch that.
